Emotion Recognition for Human-Robot Interaction: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives.

ABSTRACT: A fascinating challenge in the field of human-robot interaction is the possibility to endow robots with emotional intelligence in order to make the interaction more intuitive, genuine, and natural. To achieve this, a critical point is the capability of the robot to infer and interpret human emotions. Emotion recognition has been widely explored in the broader fields of human-machine interaction and affective computing. Here, we report recent advances in emotion recognition, with particular regard to the human-robot interaction context. Our aim is to review the state of the art of currently adopted emotional models, interaction modalities, and classification strategies and offer our point of view on future developments and critical issues. We focus on facial expressions, body poses and kinematics, voice, brain activity, and peripheral physiological responses, also providing a list of available datasets containing data from these modalities.

Recent advances and future perspectives in vector-omics.

Project description:We have reviewed recent progress and the remaining challenges in vector-omics. We have highlighted several technologies and applications that facilitate novel biological insights beyond achieving a reference-quality genome assembly. Among other topics, we have discussed the applications of chromatin conformation capture, chromatin accessibility assays, optical mapping, full-length RNA sequencing, single cell RNA analysis, proteomics, and population genomics. We anticipate that we will witness a great expansion in vector-omics research not only in its application in a broad range of species, but also its ability to uncover novel genetic elements and tackle previously inaccessible regions of the genome. It is our hope that the continued innovation in device portability, cost reduction, and informatics support will in the foreseeable future bring vector-omics to every vector laboratory and field station in the world, which will have an unparalleled impact on basic research and the control of vector-borne infectious diseases.

Immunotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma: recent advances and future perspectives.

Project description:The introduction of immunotherapies has been a major development in the treatment of many advanced cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We are entering a new era of systemic therapy for advanced HCC associated with an explosion of clinical trial activity. Data from phase?I/II studies of checkpoint inhibitors in advanced HCC have been promising, with durable objective response rates of approximately 20% seen (in both first- and second-line settings) and acceptable safety profiles (including immune-mediated hepatitis). Phase?III studies evaluating anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) and anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1) antibodies compared with sorafenib are already underway. The potential synergistic effects of anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 when used in combination with agents against other checkpoint molecules, systemic therapies, as well as conventional surgical and locoregional therapies are also being explored in upcoming clinical trials. Aside from this, other strategies to harness the immune system, including chimeric antigen receptor-engineered T cells, natural killer cell therapies, and peptide vaccines directed against HCC antigens have entered phase I/II studies. Current limitations of immunotherapies and areas of future research include the accurate assessment and prediction of tumor response, overcoming the immunosuppressive effects of a hypoxic microenvironment, and the management of immune-related hepatitis in patients who already have limited liver reserve.

Bacterial Zinc Metalloenzyme Inhibitors: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives.

Project description:Human deaths caused by Gram-negative bacteria keep rising due to the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon. Therefore, it is a priority to develop novel antibiotics with different mechanisms of action. Several bacterial zinc metalloenzymes are becoming attractive targets since they do not show any similarities with the human endogenous zinc-metalloproteinases. In the last decades, there has been an increasing interest from both industry and academia in developing new inhibitors against those enzymes involved in lipid A biosynthesis, and bacteria nutrition and sporulation, e.g., UDP-[3-O-(R)-3-hydroxymyristoyl]-N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase (LpxC), thermolysin (TLN), and pseudolysin (PLN). Nevertheless, targeting these bacterial enzymes is harder than expected and the lack of good clinical candidates suggests that more effort is needed. This review gives an overview of bacterial zinc metalloenzyme inhibitors that have been synthesized so far, highlighting the structural features essential for inhibitory activity and the structure-activity relationships. Our discussion may stimulate and help further studies on bacterial zinc metalloenzyme inhibitors as possible novel antibacterial drugs.

Delivery strategies of cancer immunotherapy: recent advances and future perspectives.

Project description:Immunotherapy has become an emerging strategy for the treatment of cancer. Immunotherapeutic drugs have been increasing for clinical treatment. Despite significant advances in immunotherapy, the clinical application of immunotherapy for cancer patients has some challenges associated with safety and efficacy, including autoimmune reactions, cytokine release syndrome, and vascular leak syndrome. Novel strategies, particularly improved delivery strategies, including nanoparticles, scaffolds, and hydrogels, are able to effectively target tumors and/or immune cells of interest, increase the accumulation of immunotherapies within the lesion, and reduce off-target effects. Here, we briefly describe five major types of cancer immunotherapy, including their clinical status, strengths, and weaknesses. Then, we introduce novel delivery strategies, such as nanoparticle-based delivery of immunotherapy, implantable scaffolds, injectable biomaterials for immunotherapy, and matrix-binding molecular conjugates, which can improve the efficacy and safety of immunotherapies. Also, the limitations of novel delivery strategies and challenges of clinical translation are discussed.

The microbiome in pancreatic diseases: Recent advances and future perspectives.

Project description:The human microbiota exerts multiple physiological functions such as the regulation of metabolic and inflammatory processes. High-throughput sequencing techniques such as next-generation sequencing have become widely available in preclinical and clinical settings and have exponentially increased our knowledge about the microbiome and its interaction with host cells and organisms. There is now emerging evidence that microorganisms also contribute to inflammatory and neoplastic diseases of the pancreas. This review summarizes current clinical and translational microbiome studies in acute and chronic pancreatitis as well as pancreatic cancer and provides evidence that the microbiome has a high potential for biomarker discovery. Furthermore, the intestinal and pancreas-specific microbiome may also become an integrative part of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches of pancreatic diseases in the near future.

Recent advances of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer: Future treatment perspectives.

Project description:Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) has been widely used as a multidisciplinary approach for stage II/III rectal cancer. However, its safety and efficacy are controversial because previous studies have shown conflicting outcomes. The present review aimed to elucidate the benefits and limitations of nCRT for patients with rectal cancer. Future perspectives of nCRT are also described. No recent randomized trials have been able to show a survival benefit, although many studies have demonstrated good local control with the use of fluoropyrimidine (e.g. 5-fluorouracil [FU] or capecitabine)-based nCRT. Addition of oxaliplatin (OX) to FU-based nCRT might improve overall survival by preventing distant metastasis, as shown in recent meta-analyses. However, control of adverse effects is an important concern with this treatment. New treatment strategies such as nonoperative management (watch and wait policy) and total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) are promising, but the establishment of reliable diagnostic methods of metastasis is essential. Development of new biomarkers is also necessary to select patients who are more likely to benefit from nCRT.

Targeted medical therapy of biliary tract cancer: recent advances and future perspectives.

Project description:The limited efficacy of cytotoxic therapy for advanced biliary tract and gallbladder cancers emphasizes the need for novel and more effective medical treatment options. A better understanding of the specific biological features of these neoplasms led to the development of new targeted therapies, which take the abundant expression of several growth factors and cognate tyrosine kinase receptors into account. This review will briefly summarize the status and future perspectives of antiangiogenic and growth factor receptor-based pharmacological approaches for the treatment of biliary tract and gallbladder cancers. In view of multiple novel targeted approaches, the rationale for innovative therapies, such as combinations of growth factor (receptor)-targeting agents with cytotoxic drugs or with other novel anticancer drugs will be highlighted.

Personalized neoantigen vaccination with synthetic long peptides: recent advances and future perspectives.

Project description:Therapeutic cancer vaccines are one of the most promising strategies of immunotherapy. Traditional vaccines consisting of tumor-associated antigens have met with limited success. Recently, neoantigens derived from nonsynonymous mutations in tumor cells have emerged as alternatives that can improve tumor-specificity and reduce on-target off-tumor toxicity. Synthetic peptides are a common platform for neoantigen vaccines. It has been suggested that extending short peptides into long peptides can overcome immune tolerance and induce both CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses. This review will introduce the history of long peptide-based neoantigen vaccines, discuss their advantages, summarize current preclinical and clinical developments, and propose future perspectives.

Nuclear transport inhibition in acute myeloid leukemia: recent advances and future perspectives.

Project description:Selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINE) are emerging as a potentially efficacious therapeutic strategy for overcoming resistance to conventional chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia. SINE specifically block the protein Exportin 1, also known as chromosomal region maintenance 1, leading to nuclear retention of cargo proteins, including several tumor suppressor proteins. Selinexor, a first generation SINE, is currently in early phase clinical studies in various combinations with promising antileukemic and pro-apoptotic activity. Here we discuss the mechanism of action of SINEs and further elaborate on the clinical data available from the various trials in acute myeloid leukemia.

Prediction of drug-ABC-transporter interaction--Recent advances and future challenges.

Project description:With the discovery of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), it became evident that ABC-transporters play a vital role in bioavailability and toxicity of drugs. They prevent intracellular accumulation of toxic compounds, which renders them a major defense mechanism against xenotoxic compounds. Their expression in cells of all major barriers (intestine, blood-brain barrier, blood-placenta barrier) as well as in metabolic organs (liver, kidney) also explains their influence on the ADMET properties of drugs and drug candidates. Thus, in silico models for the prediction of the probability of a compound to interact with P-gp or analogous transporters are of high value in the early phase of the drug discovery process. Within this review, we highlight recent developments in the area, with a special focus on the molecular basis of drug-transporter interaction. In addition, with the recent availability of X-ray structures of several ABC-transporters, also structure-based design methods have been applied and will be addressed.
